Behind The Line by Klara Marciniak

While walking my dog in Budapest, I saw two elderly people walking hand in hand on a day after rain.They go out shopping every day at the same time. They always dress ceremoniously. The sun hit an electric pole and cast behind them an interesting, line-like shadow on the wet asphalt. For me, this gave the image a symbolic meaning.

Brick Road by Rafael Lorenzo de Leon

From a bird’s-eye view, a woman meanders down a winding brick road, her presence a subtle contrast against the monochrome landscape. The path, framed by dense foliage, weaves through the scene, its intricate curves outlined sharply in black and white. The surrounding plants, though devoid of color, offer texture and depth, their forms creating a natural border around the path. Each step she takes is a journey through a timeless, serene landscape, where the simplicity of the monochrome world highlights the elegant dance between human and nature.

My three-year-old daughter and I were playing lego when I noticed what an interesting light and shadow game was developing on the step floor. The sun lit up the living room and the "light" game turned into quite a dramatic scene. This became especially apparent when I converted the image to black and white.
